Summary
Treyarch has addressed its initial plan to tackle the ongoing cheating problem inCall of Duty: Black Ops 6’s Ranked Play game mode. The fight against cheaters in online games is a never-ending battle, andCall of Duty: Black Ops 6is just the latest title to suffer, with players reporting issues at this early stage.
Ranked Play released forCall of Duty: Black Ops 6, bringing the highly anticipated competitive mode into the game. However, its launch was not without its hiccups.Black Ops 6’s Ranked Play has been plagued with cheaters, with many professional players and content creators complaining about the current state of the mode. It seems especially prevalent at a high level, with cheaters naturally being placed alongside the best players.
In a post on X, it was confirmed that Treyarch is working on some solutions to fix this ongoing cheating issue inBlack Ops 6’s Ranked Play. It will be undertaking “aggressive targeting of suspicious accounts” while also “accelerating Replay Investigations to review suspicious players.” Although this sounds a little vague, it seems as though more manpower resources will be assigned to take a look at any player marked suspicious in Ranked Play. Many of these cheaters are blatant wallhackers and aimlockers, so upon review, these cases should prove to be pretty open and shut.
Black Ops 6 is Working on Solutions For Ranked Play Cheating Problem
It’s worth remembering that before launch, Activision claimed it wants toban cheaters fromBlack Ops 6within one hour of their first match. However, Ranked Play requires that players must first win 50 matches before they can even take part, yet cheaters are still finding a way in. This could be down to cheaters only using their third-party tools after getting access to Ranked Play, but even then, it doesn’t seem as though players are being banned within one hour at the moment. Hopefully, this plan goes some way to resolving the cheating problem, even if it’s simply the first steps in a longer journey.
Cheating issue aside, there’s plenty forCall of Duty: Black Ops 6fans to be excited about in the near future. Season 1 is ongoing, and with it, a stream of content is arriving in the game.December 5 is set to be a huge day forCall of Duty: Black Ops 6fans, thanks to the arrival of the new Zombies map, Citadelle Des Morts. Treyarch has done a great job so far of keeping the live-service game fresh, so hopefully it continues at this rate.
